I had a long review but I'll replace it with a low-effort one to coincide with the amount of effort that went into Coh3. Coh3 performed so astoundingly poorly that Relic is being gutted and sold off by Sega. That's how bad this game is. Even Sega doesn't want anything to do with Relic. Not even touching on Relic's history of loving Nazis and the SS- this game is an embarrassment. Africa and Italy for the setting but there's no Italian faction? Just a completely bizarre design choice. It would be like if they didn't add Brits for Coh2. Where are the Soviets? Where are the Japanese? Coh2 had Brits, West Germany (which was really just the SS), and Americans despite the game being about the eastern front. There's no excuse behind why we couldn't get Soviets or Japan in Coh3, except for the fact that Relic is incompetent. Oh, the game started with 4 factions? Big whoop. 3 of them have been in the prior two games. Only Africa Korps is 'new', and really they're just Coh3's substitute for the SS- erm- I mean OKW. Either way, it's such a ♥♥♥♥ game that having 4 factions on launch doesn't mean anything, because the game just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucks. Maybe Relic's new masters might do... anything... at this point. Coh3's development has been totally catatonic after launch. They made the balance HORRIBLE, added a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ cash shop, and a few maps after over a year of 'support'. Making a community development/balance team that adds community maps, units and battlegroups, and other features might be a good idea. Unfortunately, Relic is retarded and will repeat their mistakes with Coh2- putting a bunch of closet Nazis in charge of the community balance team which doesn't have to answer to anyone. What a joke.

At the end of the day, all I can really say, is that Relic deserved everything they're getting. A company mired by incompetent upper and middle management, underpaid and """"overworked"""" developers who apparently couldn't add more than like 3 maps to the game over the course of 12 months, POS leftist community managers, a community balance team that ruined Coh2 in a vain attempt to turn it into a game where Nazis are heroes and a hyper-competitive E-sports ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, despite Coh2 not being anything resembling a hypercompetitive game (((((**this is why you should not let a few top players influence a game's balance**)))). Yeah...
